We can force system root for supersu...

The ric defeat script works only on already rooted phone, or i will try to do it over adb in recovery just decomposing the script and adapt paths etc...
[Xperia Z3 General] zxz0O0:
Sorry I don't understand what you're saying.

When you're installing Marshmallow in recovery, you can install RIC Defeat zip right afterwards when you're still in recovery.

Or you can root with kingroot and then insert the module with insmod

I burled RIC with success in ramdisk kernel

Only we need to fix black camera

someone would have an idea of where to search? I'm a little tired

Note: Kernel built with SELinux permissive in command line (black camera)

Builds SElinux enforcing not boot

Kernel status:

SElinux permissive

RIC disabled

Debugging enabled by default

Kernel insecure (ro.secure=0)

Use SuperSU-v2.65

[Xperia Z3 General] warface:
As always in these types of threads, we get bombastic statements about sonyfail and Sony are rubbish etc etc. Why do people ABSOLUTELY HAVE TO HAVE the latest os yesterday?

The sense of entitlement is outstanding in some people. Sony absolutely will not care if three or four people flounce off and "go to HTC" because they couldn't have MM faster than Samsung or Htc.

Buy a nexus instead and beta test the latest updates for us all..

Stop the whinging and leave the thread for real updates or info about the software that we actually have.

Hi, there are some comments in Z2 Beta thread that WiFi on Beta for Z2 has weaker signal. So far can I confirm also for Z3. I have both 2,4 and 5GHz APs and both WiFis do not work in my bedroom with Beta software due weak reception, but with .264 firmware work without problem...

Bootloop.

Seems it can't be done without setting kernel to permissive or patching the sepolicy in the ramdisk. Custom kernel either way you look it it.
[Xperia Z3 General] zxz0O0:
Try with the SuperSU zip attached. It's edited to not use systemless install. Maybe this is enough but maybe we also have to disable SELinux.

Please upload the recovery log after flashing again and report if the device boots.

After update with this flashable zip, I will receive future OTA updates for this beta?
[Xperia Z3 General] ondrejvaroscak:
I can not do it right now, because I need my mobile, but I already edited the supersu.zip to only allow system installation. I have verified that it flashed correctly, but however bootloops on Sony logo and doesn't matter if you flash just supersu or super su and selinux permissive patch or both together with ric killer or you add recovery on top. no combination worked, as soon as you flash either super su recovery, bootloop. In recovery case it is clear to me that it was just sorrow try, as xzdr is not made MM compatible..

Ok guys with Unlocked Bootloaders

Here is the latest iteration of a rootable boot.img for mm-beta https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24459283995297395

You know the drill:-

- Rename to boot.img

- Flash via Fastboot

- Enter recovery

- Flash a Systemless SuperSU eg: BETA-SuperSU-v2.68-20160228150503.zip

- Reboot.

FIXED

- Black Camera

- Root apps hanging while waiting for Supersu to grant permission

- RIC. Big thanks to [MENTION=4102242]Gustavo RD78[/MENTION] for working this out :good:

Note

- The first boot may take some time, and give the impression that you are in a bootloop. Just wait and it will boot up normally eventually.

[Xperia Z3 General] ondrejvaroscak:
I still don't understand... you opened some applications and then opened them again. I did not see anything non working or some applications crash
[Xperia Z3 General] maple_mak:
+1

Look at the Google+, I'm opened before and without close it, then open other applications then go back to Google+ and it shows restarted.

Google Chrome also.

This means it has been auto crashed at task manager.
[Xperia Z3 General] ondrejvaroscak:
No, it just means that system decided to close application, because you did not use it actively and you opened enough other applications to trigger automatic app close. This is no bug but normal behavior in Android.
[Xperia Z3 General] Zox09:
That should not happen on a device with 3GB of RAM. Android only closes the app when it needs more memory and opening that few apps don't require 3GB at all. That didn't happen in Lollipop either.
[Xperia Z3 General] ondrejvaroscak:
When this happens is not decided by amount of RAM, but settings in system... each manufacturer customizes these settings according to common use scenarios. So if Sony thinks it's users do not need to run 20 apps at once and expect them to use Camera, Effects and other memory hungry applications, modifies settings accordingly to keep more memory free and less apps running.

If the application has crashed because of memory leak, there would be an error entry in Logcat...

These are current MinFree settings in Sony Marshmallow:

15360,19200,23040,26880,57238,66560

FOREGROUND_APP: 60 MB - This is the application currently on the screen, and running

VISIBLE_APP: 75 MB - This is an application that is open, and running in the background because it's still doing something

SECONDARY_SERVER: 90 MB - This is a process (a service that an application needs) that is alive and ready in case it's needed to do something

HIDDEN_APP: 105 MB - This again is a process, that sits idle (but still alive) in case it's needed by an app that's alive and running

CONTENT_PROVIDER: 224 MB - This is apps that provide data (content) to the system. HTC Facebook Sync? That's a CONTENT_PROVIDER. So are things like the Android Market, or Fring. If they are alive, they can refresh and provide the content they are supposed to at the set interval. If you kill them, they can't of course.

EMPTY_APP: 260 MB - I call these "ghosts." They are apps that you have opened, but are done with them. Android uses a unique style of handling memory management. When an activity is ended, instead of killing it off Android keeps the application in memory so that opening them again is a faster process. Theses "ghost" apps use no battery or CPU time, they just fill RAM that would be otherwise empty. When this memory is needed by a different application or process, the RAM is flushed and made available for the new app. To satisfy the geekier people (like myself) Android does this by keeping a list of recently used apps, with the oldest apps in the list given the lowest priority -- they are killed first if RAM is needed elsewhere. This is a perfect way to handle 'ghost' processes, so there's no need to touch this part ;)

The terminilogy used is taken from http://www.androidcentral.com/fine-tuning-minfree-settings-improving-androids-multi-tasking

So as you can see, first app that is inactive in backround is getting killed at 260 MB free RAM ... With memory hogs like Facebook it is quite easy to get down even to 75 MB when even active background app will be shut down by memory manager..
